Four-wheel drive vehicles have 3 types: full-time (always), part-time (sometimes 4×2), and automatic (the vehicle decides if 4×4 or 4×2 is needed). The gearing options found in 4WD cars help you deal with different kinds of situations, especially while driving off-road. They are effective in helping you avoid sliding and spinning. They are extremely useful whenever you are driving on sand, snow or ice, rocky gravel roads, muddy areas, wet and slippery roads, steep hills, gullies, and more.

Besides the fact that they are perfect to use in places with extreme weather conditions, they are also often used for sports and business because of its maximum power, traction, and durability.
As strong and powerful as they are, like all cars, there will come a time when you’ll have no other choice but to let it go. So how will you be sure that now is that time?

Total Car Collections, one of the leading 4WD wreckers in Melbourne, is here to help you realise that it is wiser to sell your old and junk four-wheel drive vehicles now. If your 4WD is showing signs similar to the ones below, then it’s time to let it go.

It is not as powerful and useful as before.

We buy a 4WD because of its strong and unique features. So now if it isn’t as durable in snow, mud, or sand anymore, why hold on to it any longer? The fact that you won’t be able to use it for personal or business reasons anymore, should be the very first reason for you to decide that you need to let go of it already, and move on.

It isn’t safe and cost-efficient anymore.

Because it doesn’t work and run like before, you keep on spending more time and money to fix the parts. Not to mention, buying 4WD parts like gears, transmission, or engine, can definitely put a dent in your wallet. Plus the fact that insuring 4WD vehicles cost a lot more.
Furthermore, if there had been numerous times wherein you and your family (or other people) have used your 4WD and you’ve encountered an accident or experienced a break down, it should be a red flag already. When you and your family’s safety is at stake you need not think twice about disposing of that vehicle.

It takes up too much space in your property.

Let’s face it. 4WD vehicles are usually a lot bigger than other cars. So if you don’t use it as often anymore, all it does is just sit, gather dust, harbor mosquitoes, and rust in your garage. More often, you can’t use your garage for other cars and things anymore. Especially if your 4WD is completely wrecked and not working, you can’t even move it to a more suitable place to stay.

It just makes you sad and stressed.

Gone are those glory days when you are so proud and happy about driving your 4×4 around town. Now, it’s simply not roadworthy. You get stressed whenever you see that old eyesore in your premises. And let’s face it, there had been plenty of times where you keep on fixing it and restoring its old grandeur, but you just end up feeling sad and frustrated because you can’t do anything about it any more.

If all these sound too familiar, maybe it’s about time to finally admit and tell yourself: “I need to sell my 4WD.”
